Jimmy McGhie flies through Edinburgh like a Winged Goddess of Victory with his fifth solo show. Confronting masculinity, mortality, the sins of the father and his complete inability to resist a good salesman. Along the way he encounters some vicious anti-corporate satirists, and explains how various early childhood humiliations made him what he is today: a clown. If you are an adult who still rides a skateboard, you should probably not come to this show. Jimmy performs to great acclaim across the world and has been described ‘tediously handsome’ (Fest).

Amused Moose Laugh Off winner Funmbi brings his highly anticipated solo show to the Fringe. It’s the story of a 10-year-old boy leaving Hackney for Lagos… Delivered in his charismatically calm and collected manner, this promises to be a debut not to be missed. As seen on Comedy Central At The Comedy Store. ‘Plenty of original insights and honest home-truths to enjoy’ (Chortle.co.uk). ‘A charming young comic … he’s got the jokes to back up his charm. Soon, he could be playing to thousands’ (TimeOut). www.funmbi-omotayo.co.uk
